Abstract

The following document will expound upon the role of definitions in the telecommunications regulations arena during the modern technological era of convergent technologies and ideological spheres. The document will overview the importance of defining the object being regulated (in this case, telecommunications services) in order to confer rights, demand the fulfillment of obligations, and limit State intervention.

The document will then look at the classical criteria for definition from Aristotle, as well as the more limiting factors that arise from this definitional approach and other related problems that arise out of terms of "loose meaning." What is more, this document will also argue that t technology itself is ever-more challenging to to define and delineate. In today's convergence era, technological services are becoming more and more united, a tendency which counters the pattern of separationalism inherent the regulatory behaviors of the telecommunications industry.
